❤️ Special Update: We're hiring homeschoolers!
Seeking homeschool parents and teens for flexible, remote work.
Seeking community ambassadors with homeschooling expertise
Dear Modulo Community readers, For those of you who don’t know me, I’m Manisha, the CEO of Modulo. Before founding Modulo, I was a teacher for 20 years in 3 countries and to over 2000 kids from PreK-12th grades in 18 subjects in private, public, afterschool, and as a private tutor. I also started my own school in NYC.
I first got interested in homeschooling seven years ago, and never looked back once I discovered this highly curated, infinitely flexible, accessible approach to PreK-12 education, to fully nurturing children’s intellectual and developmental growth, that was born from grassroots innovation in the homeschooling community, decades of collective iteration, resource, and knowledge sharing from families (many of whom are teachers) customizing the ideal education for their unique child, and sharing what they learned with their community.
For the last seven years, I’ve helped over 100k families homeschool, and I built Modulo to make compassionate, intellectually stimulating, child-centered, fully personalized education available to every child in the world.
I’m writing to you all today to share some special news!
Modulo has been awarded a special grant from the Vela Education Fund to provide resources, community, and expert support to under-resourced homeschooling families through our presence on social media, and private slack community.
And we’re hiring homeschoolers to grow our community!
We’re seeking dynamic movers and shapers in the homeschool community to help provide support and expertise to homeschooling families on social media, and in our private slack community.
This is part-time, flexible, remote work, that will only take 4-5 hours a week and fits well into a homeschooling lifestyle.
What we care about most is personal experience homeschooling.
There’s no need to have an impressive resumé, special degree or certification in social media. What we’re most excited about is finding people who are highly engaged in the homeschooling community, active on social media, passionate about democratizing access to high-quality, personalized learning, and excited to learn and grow.

Thanks so much and have a great day!
Warmly, Manisha 🌹
